How To: Polishing Your Hardwood Floors
Polishing can help some floors look better, but only when the finish is ready for it and the product matches the floor system.
Know the condition of the finish
Polish cannot fix deep scratches, worn-through finish, water damage, or pet stains. Those issues usually need repair, screening, or refinishing.
Use the right product
Avoid waxy or incompatible products that can create buildup or interfere with future refinishing work.
Ask before covering up a bigger issue
If the floor looks dull because the finish is failing, Noble Hardwoods can help determine whether polishing, recoating, or refinishing is the better next step.
